Why does the left use the dead to push a leftwing tinfoil agenda? Cindy Sheehan uses her son, Left wing nutjobs count the dead and shove it in everyones faces, and now at the Coretta Scott King funeral its used to Bash Bush - WITH HIM IN THE ROOM!. I dont know who came up with the term "The Def Comedy Jam Funeral" but let me tell you something.. it fits perfect.
She had no control over her funeral, its the idiots who planned it - and let those people say what they did about Bush - It sickens me.
She also didn't prevent the massacre at Darfur and the slaughter of Rwanda, either..
The woman saw her husband slaughtered for being "politically incorrect" ... the family had narrowly missed being blown up in 1956...
There is only so much one person can do in a lifetime, and she did quite a lot, and endured more than most of us are asked to. Furthermore, one can hardly blame HER for the funeral arrangements - that was up to her children. What was said at the service was presumably what they thought was appropriate for honoring her memory.
None of the King family are politicians as far as I know...
And why the hell didn't she defeat the North Vietmenese either? Or stop the spread of AIDS in Africa?
I am not blaming her...just an opportunity missed.
As MLK's widow, had she spoken against abortion it would have gotten some attention and perhaps had an impact.
By simply speaking out against abortion, and pointing out the impact on Americans of African descent, she could have made an impact.
I am not sure whether she could have had such an impact on Darfur or any other thing happening outside the USA.
